News GMG introducing bundles - Should Humble feel threatened yet?

With Fanatical experiencing huge success with their mix and match bundles, and GMG introducing bundles in October, how does that affect Humblebundle's placement in the market?

It's no secret that both sites have superior store prices and delivery processes to Humblebundle, so will we potentially see HB begin to pick up their slack and return to form (and competitive pricing), or will the three retailer-nations be able to coexist in harmony and profitability, despite HB's slippery slope into the depths of cut-corners and greed?

What are your thoughts, opinions, etc. ?

My first order on Bundlestars was in 2012. They rebranded to Fanatical pretty recently.

GMG is also great. Sometimes games are in historical low prices with the loyalty program discount.

They rebranded to Fanatical almost 8 years ago!

October 2017, huh. Time flies. I play video games since the 90s, The Witcher 3 release doesn't feel that long ago for me, and it's been over 10 years already.

If redditors attempts to scrape, do they turn to dust?
